The dаtа set ``iris" gives the meаsurements in centimeters оf the variables sepal length, sepal width, petal length, and petal width, respectively, fоr 50 flоwers from each of the three species of iris. The species are Iris setosa, versicolor, and virginica. You can use ``head(iris)" to look at part of the data set. (a) (4 points) Construct the histogram estimator and kernel density estimator for the ``Sepal.Length" variable. For both estimators, choose your favorite value of the bin width . For the kernel density estimator, choose at least two different kernels. Visualize these estimators in one plot (1 point for each estimator and 1 point for the plot). (b) (3 points) Construct the 95% percentile, residual, and BCA confidence intervals for the median of the ``Petal.Length" variable (1 point for each confidence interval). (c) (3 points) Use ``Petal.Length" as the outcome and ``Sepal.Length" as the covariate. Draw the scatter plot (1 point) and add the regression curve (1 point) obtained from local weighted linear regression using the span chosen by generalized cross-validation (0.5 points). Color (0.5 points) the samples according to the ``Species" variable. (d) (3 points) Construct the 95% percentile, residual, and BCA bootstrap confidence intervals for the Spearman correlation between the ``Petal.Length" variable and the ``Sepal.Length" variable. (1 point for each confidence interval)
